Find White’s only move! And then Black’s only move!!

Mate in 2

In the 19th century, some tournaments required that drawn games be replayed, a practice only stopped due to organizational constraints. Bring back the good old days! 🦾😊

What is White’s last move of this epic mate in 6?

I saw a post by Jeremy Kane today and showed it to one of my students who inspired a different attacking continuation with a small twist. White to move and win!

I’ll be visiting Poland for the first time to help call this amazing event. Can’t wait!!

If you don’t understand basic chess geometry, then you don’t understand chess. My new course breaks it down, so you can take your game to the next level! bit.ly/4e1FklO #ChessTactics #Chess #chesscom

You may have seen this pattern before, but have you seen it at scale? Pick any knight and either the pawn or the bishop. Black will lose the queen to a fork. Learn a lot more tactical ideas in my brand new course on the secrets of chess geometry. bit.ly/4e1FklO

An incredible story brewing at the Cairns Cup in St. Louis. Two young American IM’s, Carissa Yip and 15-year-old Alice Lee, are tied for first with just two rounds to go. This is in a field full of GMs and a couple of former Women’s World Champions. Just wild!! 🤯🤯🔥#CairnsCup

Carissa wins!! Alice Lee came in second! Maybe the biggest upset story of the year so far. #CairnsCup

Most of the chess principles we have learned are approximations and half-truths. If you don’t understand the why, you will never execute the how on a high level. #chessgeometry Chessable

White mates in 3. Oldie but goodie. G. MacKenzie - N.N., England 1981

Gukesh defeating Magnus again shows that he is getting better at all formats. It’s still way premature to hail him as the best in the world, but give him time to grow. Chess players are suppose to peak in their late 20’s, and he is only 19! 🤯🤯🤯 Exciting times ahead! 🔥

World Champion Gukesh unbelievably loses 7 games out of 9 in Blitz while Magnus surges into the lead with 6 wins and 3 draws at the Grand Chess Tour event in Croatia. Tomorrow crowns a winner! Grand Chess Tour

Congratulations to Magnus Carlsen on winning the SuperUnited Rapid & Blitz with a round to spare, his 10th victory out of 12 #GrandChessTour rapid & blitz events he's played!

Amazing opening analysis: Black has sacrificed two pawns, but can now win a piece in a highly original way. #chesstactics
